In the shadow of battle, Gettysburg’s civilians faced war without uniforms, turning homes into hospitals and daily life into quiet acts of courage.

When Daniel and Hannah Klingel purchased their farm in April 1863, they never imagined it would become part of one of the Civil War’s most pivotal battles.
